U.S. War With Iran Will Not Have British Support, Boris Johnson Warns Donald Trump

Boris Johnson—the front runner in the race to become the next prime minister of the U.K.—has said he would not support U.S. military operations against Iran as the international community watches Tehran nervously for signs of nuclear proliferation.

Speaking alongside rival and Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt at the final leadership debate on Monday, Johnson said he would not support strikes against Iran if he becomes prime minister at the end of this month.

Johnson is widely expected to defeat Hunt in the race to become the next Conservative Party leader—and thus prime minister—when the result of the contest is announced on July 23.

Johnson's a liar and Hunt is equivocating. The illegal seizure of the oil tanker Grace off Gibraltar by the UK, revealed they are in with the US Iranian policy up to their eyeballs.
